Subject: RE: Exercise & Declutter March into Spring 2012
Well, our day changed horses before mid-stream this morning when Morgan called bright and early to tell us he was sick and had thrown up a couple of times, so no Moon Farm, today. I knew I had to get out of this house AND valley, so, after taking the morning to do pretty much nothing, we left for a long ride. Only, it didn't sit well with me. Wrong place, wrong time, so we came home, then went to the grocery store. Came home, ate lunch, then talked about what we can do to make this place look more "chic" than "shabby." Rog has decluttered an enormous, dust-ridden mass of wires and cables from under his kitchen desk, swept the area and made that look better.

I think we are going to move my PC back to the bigger desk in the old office. I'll have more room for paperwork and be able to have the scanner and tape dubber in handier spots than now. We will leave the library table in the DR and move the jewellery stuff to it.

It's a little iffy for me as I like being able to see the front door, see Rog, the dog on the sofa and out the DR windows, plus that's where we watch netflix, but I think I need the change. We agreed, if it doesn't work out, we can always put things back.

As far as I know, Morgan will be here, tomorrow, provided he isn't sick. He says he's fine, now.:-) If so, I'll have him help me start by moving the jewellery stuff out to the kitchen table.

Moon Farm may happen on Sat. or Mon. as he also has Mon. off from school.

Another goal is to drag out the old aluminium awnings from the kitchen door and window to see if we can salvage them with a new coat of paint and get them up. A few days in the 60s and the high altitude sun has the house warming up to near 80F inside during the day!
